LHS Athletic Department

On behalf of Libertyville High School and the Athletic Department, we would like to welcome you to Libertyville High School. We truly believe that athletics are an integral part of the educational program for the students. The Athletic Department will provide every opportunity for the student-athlete to participate in athletics, and also provide the proper facilities and educated coaches.
 Libertyville High School has a tradition of producing competitive teams that also display good sportsmanship. As you become a Wildcat, we encourage you to become involved in Athletics through coaching, working or attending athletic events. In 2010-2011, there were 1,244 student-athletes that made a commitment to athletics.
If you have any questions, or if we can help in any way, please contact us.

Congratulations to the LHS Athletes of the Week...

 

Kyle May, Wrestling.  Kyle went 3-1 to take 3rd place in the NSC Tournament at 120 pounds.  During the tournament, all 3 of his wins were against higher seeded opponents and his only loss was to the eventual conference champion.  Kyle and the team will compete again this Saturday in the IHSA Regional Tournament hosted by Libertyville.

 

Natalie Zeng, Girls Bowling.  Natalie finished in 11th place as an individual at last week's NSC Conference Tournament.  She led the team with a 1068 series overall.  After a slow start, Natalie improved her score nearly every game throughout the day, including a high game of 215.  The bowling team will be competing in the IHSA Sectional tournament at Lake Zurich on Saturday.

 

Kerry Risley, Girls Basketball.  Kerry was a key contributor over the past week for the girls basketball team as they went 3-0 with wins over Mundelein, Lake Forest and New Trier.  Kerry poured in 16 points in the win against New Trier on Senior Night!  With the win against Lake Forest, the team clinched the NSC Lake Division and will play in the NSC Championship game at Vernon Hills on Wednesday, February 8th at 7:00pm. 

Go Wildcats!

NSC Sportsmanship Mission

 
Good Sportsmanship is the attitude and behavior that exemplifies positive support for the interscholastic programs of the North Suburban Conference as well as for the individuals who participate in these programs. People involved in all facets of the interscholastic program are expected to demonstrate respect for others and display good sportsmanship.
One of the goals of the North Suburban Conference for interscholastic competition is to teach important values while enriching the educational experiences of young men and women. Good sportsmanship is one of those values.
Participants Expectations
  • Accept and understand the seriousness of your responsibility and the privilege of representing your school and your community.
  • Learn the rules of the game thoroughly and discuss them with parents, fans, and fellow students.
  • Treat opponents the way you would like to be treated. Taunting will not be accepted.
  • Wish opponents good luck before the game and congratulate them in victory or defeat.
  • Respect the integrity and judgment of the game officials.
  • Obey the rules and regulations set forth when a guest of any NSC host school.
Spectator Expectations
  • High School athletics are learning experiences for students, and sometimes mistakes are made. Praise student athletes in their attempt to improve themselves as students, athletes and individuals.
  • A ticket is a privilege to observe the contest, not a license to verbally assault others.
  • Learn the rules of the game
  • Show respect for the opposing players, coaches, spectators, and support groups.
